Tell me About the Forest (you once called home)
Tell me about the ForestYou once called home
Farewell now my sisterUp ahead there lies your roadAnd your conscience walks beside youIt's the best friend you will ever knowAnd the past is now your futureIt bears witness to your soulMake sure that the love you offer upDoes not fall on barren soil.
For the wind cries of lateIn the whispering grass.Our way of life is heldIn the spinning wheels of chance.
I believe in the ways of an older lawWhen we used to dance to a different drumAnd we are changing are waysYes we are taking on different roadsTell me more about the forestThat you once called home.
For the wind cries of lateIn the whispering leavesAnd the sun will turn to wasteThe heavens we build above.
Father teach your childrenTo treat our mother wellIf we give her back her diamondsShe will offer up her pearl.
But I'm not bitter no I'm survivingTo face the world, to raise the future.So why don't you tell me, come on and tell meAbout the world you left behind.Come on and tell me.
